About us

Welcome to gotravelyourself.com, a solo travel guide for people who would rather go than wait.

This site is for anyone who has ever said, “I want to travel, but no one can come with me.” Our motto: “Travel solo, travel smart, travel well.“

Whether you are planning your first solo trip or have travelled alone before, this is your space. Here is what you will find on the site:

  • Destination guides: solo-friendly places, with advice on getting around, where to stay and what to avoid.
  • Solo travel tips: practical advice on staying safe, meeting people and dealing with loneliness.
  • Itineraries and ideas: trip ideas for 3 days or 3 months, to fit your budget and comfort zone.
  • Solo-Readiness Scores: our rating of cities for solo travelers, explained in our methodology.

We do not sell tours* or pretend every trip is perfect. We aim to explain what works, what does not, and how to make solo travel feel doable, even if you are nervous.

How we work: we use AI tools to help research and draft guides, and we point to official sources for anything that matters. Read how we create our content and our AI usage disclaimer.
